Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Shall we make these spicy pork ribs with cheese? They’re perfect for entertaining guests or for a fun Friday night meal!
Step 2
First, it’s important to remove the blood from the pork ribs. Soak the ribs in cold water for about 1 hour, flipping them occasionally. This step is crucial for eliminating any gamey odor.
Step 3
To further tenderize the ribs and remove any remaining impurities, we’ll give them a quick boil. Place the ribs in boiling water and blanch for about 5-10 minutes. This parboiling step helps the ribs absorb seasonings better and requires less simmering time later.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the flavorful sauce. In a bowl, combine 100ml of broth (or water) with gochujang (Korean chili paste), gochugaru (Korean chili flakes), minced garlic, soy sauce, and a pinch of black pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Step 5
Rinse the blanched ribs under cold running water several times to remove any remaining blood or impurities. Drain them well. If you’re short on time, you can skip the initial soaking and instead parboil the ribs thoroughly to remove the blood; this method also effectively reduces any unpleasant odors.
Step 6
Evenly coat the drained ribs with the prepared spicy sauce. For the best flavor, let them marinate for at least 30 minutes. For an even deeper flavor infusion, marinate them overnight in the refrigerator before cooking.
Step 7
Transfer the marinated ribs to a frying pan or pot. Cover with a lid and simmer over medium-low heat until the ribs are completely cooked through. It’s that simple! Alternatively, you can grill them for a delicious smoky flavor.
Step 8
While the ribs are cooking, prepare your cheese slices. Once the ribs are tender, generously top them with the cheese slices. The melting cheese will add a wonderful creamy texture and rich flavor. And voilà! Your impressive spicy pork ribs with cheese are ready to be served, a dish that will surely wow your guests.
